Imphal, November 17 2019:
Alleged involvement of a police officer in drug smuggling case is very unfortunate for the State, said Coalition Against Drugs and Alcohol (CADA) today.
In a statement issued by its secretary information and publicity Khundongbam Anand, CADA said that the alleged involvement of the Officer-in-Charge of Moreh Police Station in the smuggling of contraband drugs along the Imphal-Moreh road is a serious matter and all personnel involved should be awarded stringent punishment as per law to protect citizens from drug abuse.
It may be noted that OC Moreh Police Letkhohao Vaiphei (53) was remanded to 5 day police custody yesterday relating to a drug smuggling case.
Involvement of police personnel in smuggling of drugs when they should be guarding the porous smuggling routes has defamed police department, it said.
